My initial thought too. Not sure of the strategic value. But I wonder if it is part of a Mossad-style effort to hunt down enemies wherever they are. I guess the ops in the report would need just one or two blokes, a couple of commercially available drones, and a playstation controller.

Meanwhile, I'm sure everyone (or just me and Mutts) have noticed that it's been kicking off in Nagorno-Karabakh again, just what the world needed. It might have been a short spat actually, I note that some some sort of ceasefire agreement was reached this morning.

And Armenia has learned the value of having Russia guarantee your security and the peace.

So Ukraine takes out the entire HQ of the Black Sea Fleet in Sevastopol: x.com I watched the news on the three main Russian TV channels this evening. Not a mention! |

They appear to have some decent kit and folk who know how to use it I'd modify that to "been given some decent kit and have folk trained on how to use it". |

Mind, their own kit is pretty good. Ukraine has a long pedigree in rocket and missile technology. Seems the Storm Shadow or Scalp was used here but the homegrown Neptune has scored some hits as well.
